When Wellness Became a Product We Forgot to Buy
What if the answer to our modern health crisis isn't found in the latest supplement or fitness trend, but in wisdom that's been here all along? Indigenous communities have maintained holistic wellness practices for thousands of years - approaches that view health not as something to achieve but as a state of balance to maintain. Chelsey Luger and Thosh Collins, founders of Well For Culture, offer a different path through "The Seven Circles" - one that challenges our consumer-driven wellness industry by returning to practices that have sustained entire civilizations through unimaginable hardship. Their framework isn't about adding more to your life; it's about remembering what we've forgotten. Think of wellness as a wheel, not a ladder. The medicine wheel - a sacred Indigenous symbol - divides existence into four interconnected parts: mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual. Each direction carries specific teachings. East represents spiritual awakening, South symbolizes emotional growth, West signifies physical health, and North embodies mental wisdom. But here's what makes this different from Western approaches: these dimensions don't exist separately. They're constantly influencing each other, like instruments in an orchestra. When you neglect one area, the others inevitably suffer. That persistent back pain? It might be emotional stress manifesting physically. That mental fog? Perhaps it's spiritual disconnection appearing as cognitive fatigue. This holistic perspective forms the foundation of the Seven Circles methodology - movement, land, community, ceremony, sacred space, sleep, and food. Each circle reinforces the others, creating a framework for genuine wholeness rather than compartmentalized "fixes." The medicine wheel also teaches gratitude as a daily practice. Indigenous communities worldwide acknowledge what they're thankful for - from morning light to evening meals. The Haudenosaunee Thanksgiving Address gives thanks to all elements of creation, demonstrating how deeply this principle runs. This isn't just feel-good philosophy; neuroscience confirms that gratitude practices reduce stress and build resilience. Most powerfully, the wheel reminds us: "Mitakuye oyasin" - we are all related. Your healing contributes to your family's healing, your community's healing, and the Earth's healing. Nothing exists in isolation.
